Energy Savings
Honeycomb design technology is the most energy-efficient shading solution on the market. Honeycomb shades (or cellular shades) are designed with two layers of material that sandwich multiple small air pockets. During the summer, the pockets trap incoming air, preventing it from entering the house as heat. During the winter, the pockets trap warm air and prevent it from leaching through the windows.
Insulating honeycomb shades regulate your home’s interior temperature without relying on the HVAC system, resulting in less energy consumption and lower energy bills. Hunter Douglas’s newest offering is the Duette Architella® shading collection. The Architella shades have an increased number of air pockets for greater energy efficiency.
Flexible Lighting Control
Duette® Honeycomb Shades let you control light and privacy for your individual household needs.
The Duette Duolite® line combines two fabrics in a single shade: one light-filtering sheer shade and one room-darkening liner. Now you can create multi-functional spaces that let in soft natural light when you want it and privacy when you want to relax in the comfort of home.
The LightLock™ feature has unique, U-shaped side panels and a black, ridged interior material that traps and absorbs all incoming light in a room. When you’re ready to watch a movie, sleep, or stave off a painful migraine, LightLock ensures that the room is enveloped in nearly complete darkness.
Versatile Design
Duette® Honeycomb Shades can fit all window types, including unusually shaped windows, skylights, sliding doors, and horizontal and vertical applications. Window coverings are available in a range of high-end fabrics, colors, and textures to meet the interior design needs of any room in your home. And you can rest assured that all Hunter Douglas shades are made with quality materials resistant to fading from sunlight exposure.
Smart Control
You can use Hunter Douglas’s Powerview® Automation to control your motorized shades via smartphone, tablet, or handheld remote. Build custom scenes that set shades to your desired positions, then activate scenes with the press of a button or automate them to operate independently during the day. You have unlimited flexibility to manage shades and blinds individually, room-by-room, or throughout the entire house.
Integrate your shading system with your Control4 smart home for even greater convenience and comfort. With an integrated system, you can schedule motorized shades to work in tandem with other technologies like audio/video, lighting, climate, and security.
